Looks very dusty at the moment. Quite a lot of cars (etc) driving around... oOo Just spotted someone on a bike. Seems there is still a breeze... Just spotted a flock of birds. :)

Tip: Turn down the saturation, it gets rid of the horrible orange 'glow' making things easier to spot.

I`ve seen 3 cars (in very short period of time) and 2 small moving points on the sidewalk - probably rats or other animals because they (??) stopped on the sidewalk and run into bushes.

It may be from that hotel bombing. On CNN I saw a map of the area where the hotel was, it also had some square labeled on it. I'm pretty sure it was this one with the cam.

At about 1143pm our time, and about 743 their time, a column of humvees (about 4) drove around the traffic circle on probably a routine patrol. Looks like they were packing the usual MaDeuces..
